Tullis was admitted in 1886 as an original lay member of Glasgow Art Club, and was among those Glasgow painters and architects who in 1891 appended their names to a list requesting that the Corporation of Glasgow buy JW's Arrangement in Grey and Black, No. 2: Portrait of Thomas Carlyle (YMSM 137) (#12326).

He was the author of two books on old age pensions (1892 and 1904). His last address was Inchcape, Dennistoun, Glasgow.
